Caramel French Toast ~ Delicious English Breakfast !!

This Month's The Gourmet Seven edition ends with me. And the theme was English Breakfast and i chose the very popular French Toast. French Toast is nothing but a bread dish soaked with egg, milk n sugar and then toasted. This recipe is little different from the regular toasted French Toast, this is oven baked with Caramel sauce. The entire process was done ahead and kept in refrigerator for overnight and next day it baked. First time i tried this recipe and fallen in love, too delicious and a satisfying breakfast. My kids loved it to core. I got the recipe Here and for detailed step wise pictures click Here. In the original recipe, they used half n half cream but i replaced it with 2% milk and i also i did not add cinnamon powder to my toast . If u r a sweet tooth person, this recipe is for you!!!

Actually i made Southern Biscuits(will post next) for today's post but Yesterday when i was reading Kaveri's post i thought that i was out of the theme, as Biscuits comes under American Breakfast recipes n not English breakfast. I dunno,something went wrong with me!....then again i decided to make French Toast and googled for some interesting recipes. There are lots n lots of French Toast recipes, but i lack one or the other ingredient for each recipe :( Then at last i got this recipe and by evening i wanted to start the process, but my bad luck i don't have bread at home...Again called my H and aksed him to buy some white Bakery Bread since he mostly buys whole grain honey bread. And late night started my work n in the morning totally forgot about it. And also today kids are @ home, so i am so tired running behind them n shouting at them- don't do this ! don't fight! Sanjay! Akshay!!!! By 10.30 only i came to remember that today is my turn n i don't make anything till now.Then went n baked it...with kids really i found hard to take pics n also still my knee hurting....so clicked without intention n no planning :( So sorry gourmets hope this will not happen again. Okk no more stories...will move to the recipe...
